UP WHERE IT BELONGS

Strewn by knitted spines and a tail
with ribbons on its hair, bright flowing
visions float along an azure sky. Gracefully,
the flight takes a diamond shape as if to roam
away in some twirling glide. And as it slowly faded
from sight, the little boy on the beach giggled
and tugged the braided loop calling his paper wing,
“ Come back; I’ll have to pull you in.” But it waved on
like an entranced sail kissing the clouds; till near dusk
marked the rising moon…quietly, he rested on the sand
to gaze at the breezy sky again; this time a bit aware
the kite he handmade and loved won’t come back…
for it is up above where its home belongs.

Lovely, light and whimsical piece. Well thought out and well constructed.
Havent heard from you since you reviewed Awe Shucks. I have another one for you that I think you will get a kick out of called Vexation . I warn you it is unusual.

A Hallmark-like moment as boy and kite say their goodbyes, Nette. The 3 judge panel was wow'd by the wording and the boy's reconciling tho'ts...Yes, the kite was where it wanted to be! So delighted to find out that you wrote this one! Spectacular scene! :) Gwendolen
